Angry 05 3.0i Convertible Problem (again)

So I started a thread about a week ago about the part number for the hydraulic motor for the soft top. I read someone's article about how to manually put an automatic soft top down in the stow position, as mine is stuck up. When I press my convertible 'down' button, the latches connecting the top to the front of the vehicle disconnect, but the top does not go down. I found the red latch in the trunk that, if pulled out and rotated 90 degrees so it stays out, allows the hydraulic fluid to move freely through the motor. When I pulled it out, the top would still not go down. By go down, I mean with two people pulling on it and one person pushing up while inside the car. The hydraulic fluid will not move through the lines! How can I fix this? PLEASE HELP ME IM SO DESPERATE
